Nucleus-nucleus interactions between 20 and 65 GeV per nucleon
Journal Article

· Phys. Rev. D; (United States)
A hybrid electronic-counter--emulsion-chamber instrument was exposed to high-energy cosmic rays on a balloon. The data on 105 nucleus-nucleus collisions in the energy range 20--65 GeV/nucleon and for incident nuclear charges 22less than or equal toZ/sub p/less than or equal to28 are presented. Inclusive characteristics of particle production on different targets (plastic, emulsion, and lead) are shown and compared with models based on the superposition of nucleon-nucleus interactions. Features of a subset of the more central collisions with plastic target and some characteristics of individual events with the highest multiplicity of produced particles are described.
